Zach Bryan and his girlfriend Brianna LaPaglia are safe after an off-road vehicle crash that led to the country superstar getting stitches.

“Two nights ago, Zach and I got into a traumatizing side-by-side crash,” LaPaglia recalled in a video shared to TikTok on Tuesday (May 14). “It flipped a bunch of times, everything shattered and thank god we had our seatbelts on.”

The podcast host continued, “There was a lot of blood and we thought — we were saying goodbye to each other.”

LaPaglia noted that when paramedics arrived to the scene, they treated Bryan by giving him stitches. “It was a huge gash, but we are OK. We are happy and alive,” she shared, noting that she suffered several bruises and scratches from the broken glass.

However, a few hours after the accident, LaPaglia’s cat Mango dashed out of the tour bus and into the woods. “Zach tries to jump on her, all of his stitches burst again, he’s bleeding everywhere… so much blood,” LaPaglia said, assuring fans that Mango was eventually found.

Thankfully, despite the series of unfortunate events, Bryan was still able to continue his tour, performing on May 13 and 14 in Little Rock, Arkansas. The star’s Quittin Time tour is hitting stadiums and arenas across North America, and launched with two shows at Chicago’s United Center on March 6-7 before heading to football stadiums in Denver; Foxborough, Mass.; Philadelphia; Atlanta; Tampa, Fla.; Arlington, Texas; and Minneapolis. The tour will wrap in Bryan’s home state of Oklahoma, with two shows at the BOK Center on Dec. 13-14.
